Central Delhi Kings Vs Purani Dilli 6 DPL 2026: Yash Dhull-led Central Delhi Kings will get the Delhi Premier League (DPL) 2026 season underway with a clash against Anuj Rawat’s Purani Dilli 6 in the opening game of the T20 league at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi on Friday. Central Delhi Kings will begin the DPL 2026 on a high, having finished the 2025 season as the runners-up.
Apart from skipper and Delhi batter Yash Dhull, the Central Delhi line-up features the likes of Vedant Sehwag, Vansh Bedi, Kuldip Yadav, and Aryaveer Kohli. Ahead of the opening match, fans will be treated to a grand opening ceremony featuring live performances by renowned singers Sunanda Sharma and Sukhbir Singh, with the celebrations beginning at 5.30 PM.
Central Delhi Kings captain Yash Dhull said the team has prepared well and is eager to start the campaign on a positive note. “The team has trained really well over the last few weeks, and everyone is excited for the new season. We have a balanced squad with a good mix of experienced and young players. Our focus is on playing fearless cricket, staying consistent and giving our best in every match,” Dhull said before the tournament.
Their opponents Purani Dilli 6, on the other hand, endured a disastrous season in 2025 – finishing at the bottom of the table with just 2 wins in 8 matches.
